Recon Script

[tydansie 2]

Hey guys, 

used chatgpt to help create a script for a recon mission, trying to get it to work but i'm unsuccessful so far. 

What i'm attempting to create is if a player and his team is contacted by the enemy, they will hunt/pursue the team until the play and his team can avoid detection for 5mins. 

 

if they team successfully breaks contact and remains un-detected the enemy groups will return to patrolling the area. 

 

I'm also wanting to include a visible timer for the player.

chatgpt has given me this...

 

I saved it into a "recon.sqf" notepad file. i'm using:

 

[] execVM "recon_mission.sqf";

 

to call the script in the mission initialization under attributes.

 

any idea how to get it work?
